lane and during the commute hours specifically between 7:00 and 9:00, you have seen a tremendous backup sometimes extending all of the way back to 880 and anyone who has gone on the dumb baarton bridge knows that's substantial. someone authorized to speak on behalf of the bay area toll authority said this week and through this morning's commute they've been out here evaluating the traffic situation and they do hope to have a plan, a remedy in place, perhaps as soon as monday. it would be one of two options. one, they find the money to man that toll lane number four so that toll booth is back open or two, it is fastrak capable so instead of making that closed, they could make it a fastrak only lane helping alleviate congestion. it won't be a cash lane but a fastrak only would be better than just a closed lane. reporting live at the dumbarton

"today in the bay's" tracie potts is live on capitol hill now with the very latest. tracie, good morning. >> marla, good morning. they call this meeting at the white house disappointing.

nra says the white house seems much less focused on helping kids and protecting them than it did on attacking the second amendment. that from the nra this morning nra's president said on the "today" show that he doesn't think congress can pass an assault weapons ban. that's not the only thing they're looking at here. vice president biden says his task force will be ready by tuesday to make recommendations to the president. much of what he's heard from various groups is week he says involve universal background checks. even at gun shows and possibly in private sales. as we await him putting together those recommendations for the president, we learned that gun sales are up across the country since the connecticut shooting and nra says they have 100,000 new members just in the last month. bringing video game industry into the talks is a new move. what kind of reaction are you hearing?

>> the nra blamed them from the start saying they are largely responsible violence in those games for the types of violence that we're seeing in aurora, colorado, and newtown, connecticut and other mass shootings. new jersey's governor chris christie saying we need to take a closer look and here on capitol hill there's a bill right now to put the money into that so another federal study aimed at whether or not violent video games contribute to actual violence. >> very good. thank you so much, tracie. an update on a developing story we've been following in los angeles this morning where s.w.a.t. teams rescued 14 employees at a nordstrom rack where they were held hostage for more than four hours overnight. police say they got a 911 call from an employee's boyfriend saying his girlfriend was trapped inside the store with two armed robbers. s.w.a.t. teams you can see there entered the store and found 14 employees that were hiding in bathrooms and locked storage

areas. the robbers escaped. the man accused of the colorado theater shootings will be in court today to face charges. james holmes will enter a plea today. some legal experts believe he will plead not guilty by reason of insanity. holmes is accused of killing 12 people and injuring 70 others at a mass shooting in aurora last july. last week a judge determined there was enough evidence for him to stand trial. another cold start to our morning. want to check the forecast with meteorologist christina loren. bundle up before you head out the door. >> especially bundle up the little ones. cover their ears. as we head throughout the next couple hours it will get colder. layer up this morning. take the pets inside. don't leave them out for too long and bring in sensitive plants as well. give yourself extra time to warm up your vehicle this morning and you may find frost. if you do, snap a quick picture. send it into our facebook page and we would love to feature it

on nbc bay area. cold air continues to filter onshore. that will be the case for the next 48 hours. frigid conditions. that means it will be cold if you have tickets to the big playoff game. candlestick park. 5:00 p.m. kickoff. it's going to be cold for tailgating. it's going to be cold during the game and windchill factor as well. we'll get the swirling winds. they will be light and variable so we don't think winds will come into play too much. the cold will. 48 degrees at 7:00 p.m. a fantastic game. let's go, san francisco. as we head throughout the weekend, i want to walk you through the seven-day forecast. highs today will be in the 50s. we'll stay cool again tomorrow. and then on sunday things start to change a little bit. moisture tries to push onshore with that jet stream just to our south. the chance for another round of low snow is possible. it's very slight. we would like to let you know about everything. and next week look at the warmup on the way. not going to get that warm until wednesday and then we should hit

60 degrees on thursday. overalthough the storm track is going to move to the north and we're not expecting any heavy rain just cold for the next five days. let's check on the drive with mike. >> all right. good morning, folks. we're looking at the bay bridge where even our friday we do have backup. the cash lanes here and a few cars waiting on the other side of the fastrak lanes in the middle. fastrak a good advantage for you until much later in the commute when things bog down here. we'll show you the overall view of the approach to the bay bridge toll plaza. here's your commute direction down the east shore freeway west 80. that's clear. at the limit out of richmond and down toward the bay bridge. heading in the opposite direction we have a new crash reported. it's not a crash. it's a big rig. disabled big rig blocking two right lanes from the initial report. and that's because it sort of stuck going sideways between the two. maybe a lane change was going on. chp and freeway service patrol heading out there. they'll give me details but we do see slowing heading up in toward where it says east richmond on the maps and toward the carquinez bridge.
